Former President Donald Trump is facing four federal charges in Washington, D.C. for attempting to overturn valid election results and illegitimately retain power. Special Counsel Jack Smith has argued that Trump's attempts to have the case dismissed are without precedent in American history, and the outcome of the case could have major implications for the former president and the future of American politics. The case is currently being heard by federal Judge Tanya Chutkan, who will decide whether or not to dismiss the charges against Trump.
